the masquerade - adestria
welcome to the show,
please don't look at me
i can't bear to show you
what's underneath
you wear a mask to shield us
from who you really are
it's no surprise they idolize you
they think it's true that you're a star
you define your life by the beast
that you project
oh, what a facade,
no shame, no respect
you're on the stage,
you play out your part
you're life's a party
but you've got no heart
every time i scream,
every word i say
it's all a piece of me
that i leave up
that i leave up on the stage
this is just to let you know
from those of us you thought
you'd fooled
every emotion that you fake
is just another lie
that i see through
you'd have them worship you
who do you think you are?
who do you think you are?
you came in to suck the life
from this room
those easily swayed were the first to go
made sure that all eyes were on you
you're not happy
till you steal the show
every time i scream,
every word i say
it's all a piece of me that i leave up
that i leave up on the stage
this is just to let you know
from those of us
you thought you'd fooled
every emotion that you fake
is just another lie
that i see through
i'm no angel,
we all have horns
i'll never stand on high,
i wear no crown of thorns
i'll drink my whiskey
and burn a cigarette
but i refuse to define myself
by the nights that i forget
you won't take me
you won't take me
i see through your hollow words
you won't take me
you are a fake
